it's not just the immediate victims/families, but all Balinese society that cops it at every level, think, it's not only the hotel/restaurant/shop workers, it'll effect everyone in service privision, even down to laundries/ice makers etc.
Unfortunately, although the considerable extra travel time involved may be tolerated, the cost's involved in return flights to Melb/Syd will more or less wipe Bali from consideration as a holiday destination untill things change, and how will things change if you cant get there in the first place?.
